Question: Problem 3 : Deflection for beams ( 2 5 points ) With the problem shown below, the whole length of the beam is 3 0

Problem 3: Deflection for beams
(25 points)
With the problem shown below, the whole length of the beam is 30ft.AB=BC=15ft. There is a concentrated moment 60kips*ft at point C.
(a) Calculate the support reactions at poin A and C.(5 pts)
(b) Compute the deflection at B(midpoint).(20 pts)(keep EI as a constant in the answer)
(You can use one of the following methods: the double integration method, moment area method, or principle of virtual work method for this problem)
